I recently typed out and shared
the entire 1001 Books to Read Before You Die list to keep track somewhere other than the comments section of my Goodreads challenge so I figured I'd do the 1001 Books to Read Before You Grow Up list as well. I came across this list on
LibraryThing sometime around my pregnancy and I've been marking off the few I come across at the library. I haven't been focusing on reading these books but I'd like to now that my daughter is old enough to help me get through them! Of course, we will probably never come across some of these but it's fun to keep track.
Want to see how many you've read?
ListChallenges has a handy dandy list with covers! Just click the ones you've read and it will add them up for you! (Careful! It's an addictive site!)

I love the Goodreads Challenge but since I do add picture books from time to time, I don't consider it my final book count. My personal reading count for the year is 72 books read.
